#posey problems

DW: I should have been more specific. 

No, just no. I might not be a fan of Posey, but I'm not going to jump on the hate train either. Just because I dislike someone, doesn't mean I hate them.

I don't know what to think about his coming out story, but I won't call him a liar or that he only uses it to promote his career like the post you send me clearly stated. We simply don't know if it's true or not and have to take his word for it. It's disgusting to exclude a member of the LGBTQ+ just because you don't like them personally.

I’ll tag you at least @camelotpark

Actually I do like this better, I can respond more easily, good idea!

Anyhoo...

Him saying he’s a “white guy” because he displays typical white person traits with certain things is not him saying he is a white person and that’s how he views himself in the context of society

That’s exactly what it says, and that’s exactly what he meant and that’s exactly what he means. He’s talked about some experiences as a Latino but they he’s never talked about being perceived as a Latino man in Hollywood EVER. He has talked about never really connecting to the more stereotypical experience because he feels... like basically a white guy. 

In fact in the very article you posted, further down he calls himself ambiguous and says he can play anything. 

I don’t know why you feel the need to wrap him in the barrio existence that he just doesn’t and never has had. Tyler Posey went to highschool for a bit, but because he was an actor he traveled a lot, had tutors or was homeschooled, missed out on a lot of the kind of socializing that we get from school and community. There’s no reason for him to have this tortured racial past that you keep trying to foist on him and as a result he’s going to have some inner turmoil and conflict about it. 

WELCOME TO BEING A PERSON OF COLOR IN AMERICA!  It’s effed up. It’s not new, it’s not special, and it doesn’t give you a pass to be an unknowledgable dick.  I’ve never called him a race traitor. If anything I’ve been understanding because I know people like that.  I don’t expect him to be a model for that. I’ve never taken him to task for not being a model poc. I take YOU to task for trying to make him one when that’s clearly not his path. 

Him messing up has nothing to do with his skin color, the ones who brought it up were YOU. Winter’s post about Martin Sheen?  Brought up because of YOU. My comment about Antis saying that we talk about things we don’t is because of YOU. 

ps. You have no idea what I have and have not done politically so don’t try my credits, boo.  The difference between Posey and I?  WE KNOW WHAT HE DID BECAUSE HE OPENED HIS FOOL MOUTH AND TOLD OVER 5M OF HIS FOLLOWERS THAT HE DID NOTHING.

pps. I do love that one of the screencaps you used was me telling a nonnie that I hope that the wine she spilled was white.  Which was not scathing commentary on Posey, but really I just didn’t want her to stain.  But I thought it was funny how that came full circle in your mind.  You guys love putting the cart before the horse.

Honestly, I’m over this, and we’re just gonna go in circles. I’m never going to accept that Posey is this persecuted failure of a human being you keep making him to be and you’re never going to accept that he needs to hold himself accountable for his actions so maybe we just need to agree to disagree. 

Either way, voting is important kids and your vote DOES matter. Even if you feel ike it doesn’t matter for the big one, it literally matters in EVERY SINGLE OTHER CASE so get out there and do it. Make sure you’re registered so when the next election comes up you’re ready. 

Scott/Posey stains can relate 😷😷😷

BBS: posey/scott stans like to call us pressed but they immediately become pressed when tyler hoechlin or dylan do something that gets even alittle attention.

I've been online for a VERY long time. This is not the first time something like this has happened and it's not the last. You have to understand the difference between someone truly upset, and a troll.

Posey should have done what we told him to do the last time this happened to him, block, report, delete, move on. The troll didn't care about QB'ing, they didn't care about Posey's claim to queerness, they cared about being a dick on the internet.

Again, we're dealing with issues of what "should" vs what "is". You cannot control people. Especially on the internet, especially when literally millions of people have access to you. You have to curate your experience. Whenever Posey posts one of these ridiculous tirades yelling at him, all it does is activate his stans to terrorize everyone on the internet. Trying to apply social justice morays to a friggin troll is insulting, and gross. They didn't even use the right racial slurs, why are we taking them seriously?
